GungHo Entertainment America has outlined plans for the upcoming LUNAR Remastered Collection. This double-whammy of PS1 RPGs – originally released by Game Arts – is set to release on 18th April across PS4, Xbox One, Switch and Steam both digitally and physically on consoles, although it appears that the Xbox One physical release will be …
Forever Entertainment has released a trailer for The House of the Dead 2: Remake, along with a helpful reminder that it’s due out this Spring. Their original THotD remake was released on Switch first before filtering down to other platforms. This sequel however will be multiformat at launch, set to arrive on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch …
The first Evercade cartridge of 2025 has been revealed as Indie Heroes Collection 4. This doesn’t come as a surprise considering the Indie Heroes carts feature games released on Evercade Vs over the course of the previous year. Due out in February, Indie Heroes Collection 4 will include 11 games, mostly of the pixel art …
Retroware has released a news update for their Toxic Crusaders side-scrolling brawler, based on the short-lived ‘90s cartoon, itself based on the cult movie series The Toxic Avenger. It seems the developer wished to address concerns after things went quiet following the recent Steam demo. In their update video (below), Retroware reveals that they’ve been hard at work …
Japanese publishers are looking to capitalise on the typically quiet month of January, offering up a handful of RPGs and whatever Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos is. Our best guess considering the peculiarly vague product description is that it stars the cast of Neptiuna riding bikes while collecting/fighting blob-like creatures. Quite the departure for the franchise. …
Much like Atari 50, Digital Eclipse’s own Tetris Forever is a collection being built piece by piece. The latest update to the brick falling marathon includes Spectrum HoloByte’s Welltris, a PC game from 1989, created by Alexey Pajitnov, that sees Tetris pieces descend into a 3D well. This marks the first time it has seen …
It’s easy to forget that the SEGA Dreamcast was the most technically advanced console available when it launched, making the PSone and N64 look considerably dated in comparison. Sonic Adventure initially wowed gamers and critics alike, featuring heavily in marketing campaigns. Later during the console’s short life titles such as Metropolis Street Racer and Shenmue …
Publisher Dotemu (best known for Shredder’s Revenge and Streets of Rage 4) are teaming up with Blasphemous developers The Game Kitchen to create a new 2D Ninja Gaiden. Due out next summer on all formats, NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound stars new hero Kenji Mozu, a young ninja. The story is set alongside the first game, with Ryu …
Capcom revealed not one but two future projects at The Game Awards, both of which are long requested sequels. Hideki Kamiya is returning to direct an Ōkami follow up, a collaborative effort between M-TWO Inc, Machine Head Works Inc, and CLOVERS Inc. Details are thin on the ground, with yesterday’s trailer being a mere teaser. Hideki …
Saber Interactive are, somewhat appropriately, bringing back Turok. One of the original Turok games had Sabretooth tigers, right? Turok: Origins is a complete reimagining of the franchise, opting for co-op speedy third-person shooting for up to three players. Melee attacks, ranged weapons, and special abilities will feature. Additionally, DNA from defeated enemies can be infused …
The arcade style racer Screamer made an impact on PC back in 1995, billed as the format’s answer to Ridge Racer. It’s one of the more forgotten early 3D racers of the era nowadays, but that hasn’t stopped Milestone from announcing a comeback. This reimagining, simply known as Screamer, draws from ‘90s anime and will …
Every now and then a game comes along that’s able to sell itself on its aesthetic alone. Mekkablood: Quarry Assault is one such example, featuring highly detailed pixel art and smooth animation. It’s a retro-style FPS with a twist – you’re behind the controls of a mech that shakes and sways while trashing around the metallic …
Evercade manufacturers Blaze Entertainment are partnering with SNK for new officially licensed NeoGeo products due throughout 2025 and 2026. Nothing has been officially announced just yet (a showcase is planned for late Q1 2025) but it seems sensible to suggest we’ll see new NeoGeo themed Evercade Alpha bartops and Pocket Arcade handhelds loaded with SNK classics. …
Following some not-so-subtle hints on social media, it has been revealed that three ‘90s Disney games are imminent on the Antstream Arcade retro game streaming service. Subscribers will be able to swing into The Lion King, The Jungle Book, and Aladdin from today – with a choice of the Mega Drive, SNES and Game Boy …
System 3 has announced plans to release Archer Maclean’s DropZone 40th Anniversary on digital stores next month. Curiously, it’s skipping Xbox One and PS4 and gunning for PC, PS5, Xbox Series and Switch only. The refreshed HD visuals must pack a clout. The late Archer Maclean first released Dropzone in 1984 where it quickly became …
